1828-P (Philadelphia) Early - Pre-Declaration

Coin / United States of America / 1828 / Philadelphia / Early - Pre-Declaration / 1/24r (One Twenty-Fourth of a Real)

This coin is part of the early series of United States coins, specifically dated 1828 and categorized under the "Pre-Declaration" subset. It was minted in Philadelphia, indicated by the mint mark "P". The coin represents a varied or other denomination type, reflecting the historical practices of early American coinage when standardization was not yet fully established. The coin has been designated with a "Circa" year type, suggesting it is reflective of a period around the year 1828 rather than a specific date of minting. The absence of specific measurements such as width, height, diameter, and weight implies that this may be a placeholder or an uncirculated piece that has not been extensively handled or graded. With a reported mintage of zero, this coin is rare and could be considered a unique or extremely limited piece, appealing to collectors of early American coins and those interested in numismatic history. As it falls under the general type of "Coins," it showcases the transitional nature of early U.S. currency and provides insight into the financial landscape of the time. Overall, this 1828 Philadelphia mint coin offers a glimpse into the formative years of the United States coinage system.
